Most of the gas tablets i.e. PPIs are usually prescribed once a day and taken in an empty stomach. SR just means it is released at a slower rate. In your case, it won't be a problem.
Health Tips
My suggestion would be don't continue prolonged use of PPIs rather use liquid antacids for your use case.

Not a problem. Some tablets for gas are given for twice a day consumption. Even if it was a once daily medicine, just an extra dose once won't hurt.

Next Steps
To prevent severe gas at night, try to finish your dinner at least 2 to 3 hours before sleeping.
Avoid heavy, oily, or highly spiced foods in the evening, as these are primary triggers for nighttime acidity and bloating.
